Sorry if this doesn't sound so smart, but I'm going to be doing the swap this summer for sure and the only thing I would love to know is will the stock 15" focus rims work with the swap?
If you're not sure exactly which 15s im talkin about, its these ones: 15 Stock Rims
Only reason I'd like to know is because I intend on ditching the piece of crap road tires at some point this summer for some new rims/tires and will be buying snows for those rims for the upcoming winter.
Just want to be 100% it will work out

Yes, your 15inch stock rims will fit on the rear. If you got the SVT front brakes they would be to big for the 15's

Looks great buddy. If you have problem putting the Ebrake on let me know. I might able to make it out for that, but it's not likely lol.
